Always keep Luckenbach, Texas downloaded. Just in case. You never know when it'll be time to get back to the basics of love.

people got mad at me yesterday when i said the dems were not ready to take court reform seriously. 5-4 for non-racial citizenship is not a win, it's a reprieve bsky.app/profile/schu...

I don't know why I'm supposed to be elated that 4 votes exist on the Supreme Court to throw out the plain language of the Constitution.

None of the Republican-appointed judges on the Supreme Court are conservative. I used to say they were radical, but that's not even true anymore. They're revolutionary. They're radical right wing revolutionaries.

A lot of people didn't come home from school in 7th grade and watch the video for Metallica's "One" everyday and it shows.

In its effect on the constitutional order, the Supreme Court is akin to something I'm now limited to claim Roundup causes.

In 1783, Massachusetts was the first state to end to slavery and abolition day festivities were held every July 14.

The profound part of Juneteenth for me is that before this was made a holiday, there was no official celebration of the end of slavery in the United States. When the 13th Amendment passed in December 1865, the legislators who witnessed its enshrinement imagined that the day would be remembered.

Also let me recommend historian Annette Gordon Reed’s “On Juneteenth” for your summer reading list. I felt vindicated reading that Reed, a Texan, always saw Juneteenth as a Texas celebration. Her dive into the complicated history of Texas, slavery, integration & this holiday is riveting.

January 1863: Emancipation Proclamation goes into effect April 1865: Lee's surrender June 19, 1865: Union Army arrives in Galveston, TX December 1865: 13th Amendment ratified and certified March 1995: Mississippi ratifies the 13th amendment February 2013: Mississippi certifies the 13th amendment.

The fuck I'm supposed to do when it's 81 degrees at 6:30 in the morning?

Recent developments contain dangerously high levels of JD Vance.

There's no telling what will be peeling off and floating to the surface for the rest of our days.

Packing for an extended sojourn in the upper Midwest.

Oh, do you just want to live your life with nobody harassing you about it? Interesting.

You can't sprinkle hydrogen peroxide or UFC on a peace treaty to make it better.

A gift MAGNATE I fly the PLANET...

few people have risen so high while being made of so little as Ezra Klein

“I tend to avoid politics,” I say as I fill yet another glass jar with kerosene

To me, at this point in history, if you avoid politics or say you don't do politics or refuse to comment on politics, I'm as suspicious of you as I am the red had troglodytes.

"They'll never eat a moose gall bladder. They'll never skin a lion. They'll never fuck a bear."

Me, at a social function:

We don't talk enough about how Tina Fey's sexy librarian look is stolen valor and Lisa Loeb erasure.

Trump never would have touched it if it were called the self-reflection pool.

One time at work a lady from Shreveport told me the gumbo I'd made the night before wasn't a real gumbo because in that particular one I didn't use okra. I looked her in the eye, stone-faced, and said, "If you're from north of Alexandria your opinions on gumbo don't matter."

If you're watching the fascist clown show spectacle at the white house be sure to use a hashtag so I can block you.

Leave it to Steven Spielberg to come up with the perfect ending to the X Files.

Same.

The only game the Knicks lost in these NBA finals was the only game attended by [BLOCKED BY TARP].

I simply cannot believe a college quarterback is going to be allowed to keep playing after betting on games! It's disgusting. Disgraceful. Abhorrent. A stain on this glorious game, which is brought to you by Draft Kings.

Hmmmm...I wonder if anything else has happened in the last twenty years that would make people say to themselves there's no fucking way I'm bringing children into this cursed-ass world.

It will take nothing less than a 3rd Reconstruction to undo the damage done in the past 17 months and hardly any of the people who truly understand this currently hold elected office.

There are too many things to deal with that simply should not be. I don't belong in this world anymore.

I have a great idea for a new streaming service. Basically, it consolidates all the other streaming services to which you subscribe into one platform so that you can easily toggle between them. I call it "Television."

Absolutely thrilled to share the cover to next year's short story collection coming out from @tordotcom.bsky.social! I'm obsessed with it! Comes out March 24, 2026, but you can pre-order it now wherever you like getting your books! Here's Macmillan's link. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

I really enjoyed Amal El-Mohtar's short story collection "Seasons of Glass and Iron." Read the whole thing, all the way to the end of the Acknowledgments.

When the referee talks directly into the camera I feel like I'm in trouble.

RIP Gordon Wood, a titan of the field. If I make it to 92 and die because someone hits me with a car, assume this is my dying wish:

There is no logical explanation for why Los Angeles didn't want as their mayor one of the most off-putting humans to ever get themselves in front of a camera.

I don't know what makes a "real New Yorker," but it's probably not shutting the city down for a day so you can shit your pants in a new location.

Add They Live to create the holy trinity of “conspiracies in plain sight” movies.

You think you've found a decent yoga youtuber and then she says the word "pandemic" using finger quotes.

Of course it's good to get definitive confirmation about Bari Weiss. But it only serves to further validate Stoner's Law: the most hysterical, far-flung, cynical, and paranoid suspicions you have about these people in this era will turn out to be the most correct.

The match the penetrating analysis and dogged reporting 60 Minutes displayed in the pre-Bari era, it will have to change its name and format to 15 Minutes.

RIPPER

Fuck this. Anthony Head was not on any of the request lists I submitted. From loving you as Giles to hating you as Rupert, RIP.

Write all the justifications you want. Cooperation is complicity.

None of this was on my bingo card. It only has numbers.

*hits blunt* I neither like nor trust the dude and I'm glad I don't live in Maine* but the only reason he's made it this far is because the Democratic Party as an institution is either ignorant or incompetent at reading the mood and preferences of its potential voters.
